    Chapman has only thrown 15 pitches to get through the 8th.>WOW>Maddon is gonna get away with it. MAYBE the Cubs score a couple of runs here and he'll take Chapman out?

    Well, if the score stays the same and Cubs win, he'll have Lester & Lackey for game 7 too. Well, everyone can pitch tomorrow except Arrieta.

    Not sure I'm a fan of taking Jake out right now. Had a good deal of movement on his pitches. Either way, solid outing. One real mistake.

    I agree. 2 runs on 3 hits. And to bring g in chapman with a 5 run lead in the 7th is just unnecessary.
    It's a little overkill. But in the end, my philosophy is that if you don't shut the door and they come back, there is no tomorrow. While I'm not a huge fan of the move to Chapman, rather him than Rondon.

    And what a turn by Baez. Good god is he unreal with the leather. 3 outs, and it's worry about Kluber time.

    4 hits for KB. Stay hot for another 24 hours buddy.

    Chapman is an unbelievable athlete...asking him to throw another 2 innings tomorrow (if necessary) is not a lot to ask.

    Anyone else sick of seeing Beowulf Borat and his set design commercial? So glad there's only one more night in this season.

    20 pitches for Chapman. Though, if it was me he wouldn't have went out for the 9th. If your worse pitcher in the bull pen can't protect a 7 run lead you don't deserve to win a WS.

    I think this is a good move getting him out of ther now. Chapman will be good tomorrow for game 7. Plus, he's a FA, so use him like a rented mule>LOL

    This is insane!! I'm so fucking nervous and it's still 13 hours from game time! I have no other words to describe what this feels like. I can't wait and can only hope we jump on Kluber early. I want to see miller in with a 4 run lead. Regardless of the score, I don't think there's a chance that we don't see miller today.

    I also don't hunk there's a snow balls chance in hell Kluber dominates us 3 times in one week. The short rest is going to catch up with him tonight!!

    Let's go Hendricks!!!

    Good luck tonight Cubs and fans. Sure am glad I'm a Sox fan and catch watch this with a neutral attitude. I'd hate for my team to come this close and lose it. The 2006 Bears ripped my fucking heart out in that winner take all game.
